With Chud at the helm, I am not going to even try and guess what he will come up with as regards to utilizing Smitty. Which just gets me that more excited. As long as Chud is around, we are going to be one exciting team to watch.

I have a feeling Chud won't be around much longer, if he has as much success as he did last year. A team is gonna offer him a HC job.

Chud will be gone less than 8 months from now. Mark it and hope that the Panthers organization can decipher what he has in that playbook.

So Chud will be gone before the season even ends? Wow, that is bold.

It is not the deciphering of the playbook. It is the ability to call one play that leads to the next. Which in turns leads to a play down the line. It is having the balls to call a play no one else even thought of. It is the imagination to use your talent to there fullest. It is the flexibilty to think outside the box, and have it translate to the field.

It is not the playbook we loose with Chud. It is his innate abiltiy to put imagination into reality. That is what we loose when Chud leaves. He has a first class mind, which on its own is impressive. But, the ability to transfer thought into reality is a rare gift. We best enjoy it while it lasts.

The anti Monkey hit. We ain't your steppin stone. Let it ring loud. Let ring from the mountains to the ocean. Leave our Chud alone.

Anyone who seriously believes Chud will get tagged for a HC job is seriously unaware of how the head coach process is done. There's only 32 jobs to go around, with several of them available each year, and only one or two would consider someone without head coaching experience at any level of football.

Also, as much as I'm glad Chud is here, he's not really head coach material, because his media savvy is almost non-existent, and a head coach has to be a full-time face of the franchise. Everything I've heard about his interviews said that teams liked him, but really only as an OC.

Nah, I think Smitty will still line up wide. He can stretch the field better than Gettis and can dominate the sideline and plant his toes better than Lafell. I think David will start off in the slot and might be able to overtake Brandon for the #2 spot if he balls.

I can't remember where I read it, but last year at training camp I remember some talk that Gettis showed up faster than Smitty. I know playing on the outside requires more than straight line speed, but I think with his height, Gettis might be able to relieve Smith on the outside in certain situations. All this assuming Gettis is fully recovered, and studied up on the playbook.

      Kalkbrenner and Sion James received regular contracts and not two ways, so the Hornets have some work to do to cut the roster size down.

      Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
